have a great weekend...

One of my favorites...

There is a time for everything,
and a season for every activity under the heavens:
a time to be born and a time to die,
a time to plant and a time to uproot,
a time to kill and a time to heal,
a time to tear down and a time to build,
a time to weep and a time to laugh,
a time to mourn and a time to dance,
a time to scatter stones and a time to gather them,
a time to embrace and a time to refrain from embracing,
a time to search and a time to give up,
a time to keep and a time to throw away,
a time to tear and a time to mend,
a time to be silent and a time to speak - Ecclesiastes 3

Your Ecclesiastes verse is a favourite and very relevant for me at the moment. I guess by its very nature it covers a lot of ground, relating to the very moment we are in.They are such reassuring words of wisdom. Thank you so much Jeanette for your kind words and thoughts recently. Have a lovely weekend.

How coincidental-I just ran into this verse during a Bible study. I think it is one of the most beautiful, perservering, God breathed passages I've had the pleasure of reflection in my 38 years of Christianity.
